Side effects may vary.

I just realized I never posted these illustrations I did a few months ago on some of the possible side effects of Viagra.

Since it was originally being designed as a blood pressure medication and its common use was really just a side effect of that, Viagra can give you a fatal decrease of blood pressure in your heart.

By far one of the most odd and kinda flat out scary side effects is that the blood pressure effects can actually decrease blood pressure in the capillaries of the eyes, specifically the ones that control the red rods and making everything look blue. The same effect can also potentially blind you.

I went to college for four years and all I got was this lousy comic book.

So for all of you who were out of state of simply didn’t get to see my senior show, here your chance to read my senior project (or what all you folks who go to normal college might call a “thesis”). In case you never bothered to ask what my senior project is about, it’s about the fetishizing of money in a capitalist society told in a crime noir setting, or if I were to cut the bullshit, it’s about a career criminal who gets in too deep with the wrong people

THIS IS IT!

The culmination of four months of work is currently on display in the MCAD main gallery and will be until Sunday, December 13^th. I want everyone who can to go and see it and tell me what you think (even if you think it fucking sucks). Take a business card and check out the rest of the Commencement Exhibition from all of the winter ’09 grads.

For those of you who can’t make it and still want to read the comic, I will be putting the whole thing online soon in a PDF format.

The Odds Page 8 (Sans Letters)

More fruits of my seemingly endless effort. Now that the final deadline is less than a week away, the next post will most likely contain pictures from the fully displayed senior show. I graduate in 2 weeks and so far I haven’t had the opportunity to seek out any real post-graduate prospects (for those who have asked I do not intend to go to grad school).
As far as the comic itself goes the only tasks that remain are lettering and printing. I pretty much just summed up my weekend right there.

Getting to know the dark side

Here's a quick warm up doodle I did. Alright now I gotta go be productive.

Dialogue

Wrote all the rough dialogue for The Odds. Let the editing begin!!!

Here comes the Ass Hole

Well it’s nice being back on here trying to update this thing with something that resembles regularity. There’s a bit more than a month left before I graduate and almost a month exactly before I need to have my senior show completely mounted. Regardless of how much or how little I have left to do (it could feel like either one depending on my mood that day) it still feels like the deadline is too soon. Maybe that’s a good thing though, keeps me motivated. On the negative side I’ve developed a rather strong addiction to caffeine and I’ve developed some annoying health concerns (I may be allergic to stress) but I need to soldier the fuck on.

Here’s a panel from may senior project showing the main character, Steven McCoy doing what it is he does best: being an ass hole.
